Coming off his best NFL season with the Giants (55 catches, 626 yards, five touchdowns), the Bears hope Bennett can provide quarterback Jay Cutler with another reliable target that will complement Brandon Marshall.

While Marshall had a terrific season with the Bears, their passing offense sometimes bogged down when Cutler could not get Marshall the ball. New Bears head coach Marc Trestman wants to run a more diversified offense, and Bennett is part of that puzzle. At 26 years old, Bennett’s most productive seasons could be ahead.
